How to choose a medical aid ?
Your choice of medical aid depends on a number of factors. Given the tough economic environment, here are three questions that you should ask yourself when choosing a medical aid.
- Does the medical aid have a reliable track record?
Age of the medical scheme matters. Any medical scheme that has weathered the changes and hardships of the industry to date is obviously well managed. - How many members trust the medical aid?
Numbers matter. Medical schemes pool the resources of all members to pay for the healthcare expenses of those that need care. More members means more resources. - Are there affordable plans for my budget?
Your budget matters. Your affordability is as unique as your healthcare needs. Your medical aid of choice should offer a range of plans for all budgets.
Do you need a medical aid ?
Medical aid is an optional cover in South Africa. You do not need to have a medical aid if you are satisfied with the public health service. However, most South Africans do prefer private health services which can be expensive. Medical aid ensures that you have the cover for private healthcare when you need it.
You can choose between a hospital plan or comprehensive cover.
- Hospital plans will only cover the medical bills when in a hospital and allows you to access a private hospital.
- Comprehensive medical cover will pay for the in-hospital as well as day-to-day medical care (out-of-hospital).
